[QUOTE="Lt.Dan, post: 1373767, member: 24137"] Well, i got the heads off to my buddy who owns his own Diesel shop, hes sending the heads to a machine shop he uses routinely. Theyre going to clean them up, Magnaflux them, and then inspect valves and see if i will need a valve job done. They said without the valve job, im looking at maybe $150. So I dropped the heads off today. My buddy said he is going to try and test the injector cups that are in it, see if he can rig up something to pressurize them and see if they are cracked, (all because my dumbass didnt do any diagnosis, and just pulled the heads...), he is also going to install the new injectors cups i have for free. More good news today, i went to go pull the radiator out of the truck (as it is cracked), i went to drain it, and the coolant that was in the radiator was still perfectly green, smelled like only coolant, not mixed with anything. So its probably safe to say the cooling system didnt get damaged. If it did, it would have either oil or fuel or something in it correct? I also started organizing all the bolts and parts i had in boxes. Cool to have a bag sealer at work, so i bagged up each set of parts and labeled them for future reference. And i got some pics of the parts after they came out of the parts washer, before they were solid black, covered in grease/oil/tar and such. Going to finish pulling the radiator and turbo, along with the rest of the exhaust tomorrow, ill take pics, and wish me luck... [/QUOTE]
